The Demi-Quartier market follows that of Megève, driven by international demand for prestige chalets and by a structurally scarce supply of mountain land.
The municipality owes its strength to belonging to the world of Megève and to its access to the ski area, both guarantees of value. Its limit lies in prices among the highest in the Alps and in a narrow market, very sensitive to the luxury economy.
Demi-Quartier sits below the level of Megève but clearly above the other municipalities of the Arly valley, in the upper reaches of the Alpine market.
Demi-Quartier takes its name from a former administrative division of the Megève valley, of which it formed one of the rural quarters devoted to mountain farming.
The rise of Megève as a winter sports resort in the 20th century spilled over onto its slopes, covering the mountain pastures with chalets and tying its market to that of the resort.
With 801 inhabitants, the municipality remains tiny and rural in its permanent population, but its land ranks among the most sought after in the Alps, in the wake of Megève.
Demi-Quartier has 801 permanent residents, but its market is turned almost entirely towards prestige second homes. Wealthy mountain enthusiasts, a French and international clientele, look here for a chalet or an upmarket apartment close to the Mont d'Arbois slopes. Demand is that of the Megève resort, whose world the municipality extends. Buyers value access to the ski area, views over Mont Blanc, the quiet of the wooded slopes and the scarcity of buildable land at altitude.
The average price of apartments in Demi-Quartier is 7 322 €/m², based on the notaries' DVF transactions. This level, aligned with the world of Megève, varies widely according to altitude, access to the slopes, the view and the standard of the property.
Demi-Quartier extends the ski area and the market of Megève, one of the most prized resorts in the Alps. The scarcity of mountain land and demand for prestige chalets pull prices to levels far above the department average.
Yes, very largely. With a small permanent population, the municipality lives off the market for mountain second homes, dominated by a well-off clientele looking for a base close to the Megève slopes.
Supply consists mainly of chalets and upmarket apartments, often close to the Mont d'Arbois ski area. Properties with a view over Mont Blanc and easy access to the slopes make up the top of the market.
